"If you’re looking for someplace close to all the action of New York’s buzzy, see-and-be-seen SoHo neighborhood—but that at once feels coolly removed from it all (and has its own rooftop pool, to boot)—this is the place for you. Formerly The James New York - SoHo, the hotel reopened in Spring 2021 after a nearly year-and-a-half-long renovation. There are 114 rooms spread across 14 floors—10 different room categories, all generous in size. (By Manhattan standards, anyway; Modern Queen rooms start at about 280 square feet.) Its Twenty Three Grand restaurant touts global flavors and elevated classics with a Mediterranean flair. The year-round restaurant is primed to be a destination for al fresco dining and features a glass-enclosed space with a retractable roof. The hotel features premier wellness amenities, including a 400-square-foot gym on the 17th floor (equipped with state-of-the-art fitness equipment) and a seasonal partnership with HigherDOSE." - John Wogan, Nicole Schnitzler, CNT Editors, Sandra Ramani
